Watchshop watches go to Britain’s Got Talent team

Online watch retailer Watchshop.com has gifted 25 Casio timepieces to the production team of Britain’s Got Talent to “keep production running like clockwork”.

WatchShop.com will supply the Talkback Thames production team with 25 Casio Retro Chronograph watches to enable them to log their filmed footage of the hopeful contenders on this year’s talent show.

The company offered watches to the production team of The X Factor earlier this year for a similar purpose. The design itself retails for about £15 and is one of the models leading a fashionable renaissance of digital Casio timepieces, something that many retailers have picked up on in the past 12 months.
